ABSTRACT: The development of character education through learning materials is

understood as the integration of messages and tools, as a vehicle of culture and individual

empowerment. Therefore, it needs to be compiled teaching materials based on character

education. Character-based teaching materials are instructional materials which are designed

to allow the content or the learning activities to facilitate or educate characters through the

insertion of character values. The character-based Civics learning materials through the

contextual approach which are resulted in this development research are valid in terms of

content and constructs. This can be seen based on the results of experts’ validation and

practitioners on the developed teaching materials with valid categories. This result provides

an illustration that the developed teaching materials can be used in learning Civics in grade V

in SD Negeri 060841 Medan City. Character-based Civics teaching materials through the

contextual approach generated in this development study have been declared effective for

improving Civic learning skills and developing student character.

INTRODUCTION

Education is not merely a transfer of knowledge but also a transfer of value. For that reason,

the implanting of cultural values and character of the nation in education is a pillar of support

for the upholding of education in Indonesia. Because character is the values of human behavior

associated with God Almighty, self, fellow human beings, environment and nationality

embodied in attitudes, thoughts, feelings, words and deeds based on religious norms, law,

etiquette, culture and customs. Meanwhile, character education is a system of implanting the

character values to the school community that includes the components of knowledge,

awareness or willingness, and actions to carry out these values both against God Almighty,

self, fellow, environment, and nationality so that they become human beings. Thus it can be

concluded that character education is a very important education in building the moral and

personality of the nation.

Character education in schools with all the components (stakeholders) should be involved,

including the components of education itself that is the content of the curriculum, learning and

assessment process, relationship quality, handling or management of lessons, school

management, implementation of activities or extra-curricular activities, empowerment of

infrastructure, financing and work ethic of all citizens and the school environment. Character

education can be integrated in the learning of each subject. Thus character learning is not only

in the cognitive domain but also it touches on internalization and real experience in everyday

life. Character education problems that have existed in schools need to be reviewed and sought

alternative solutions and need to develop teaching materials so that it is easily implemented in

schools. The development of character education through learning materials is understood as

the integration of messages and tools, as a vehicle of culture and individual empowerment.

Therefore, it needs to be compiled teaching materials based on character education.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Teaching Materials

Teaching materials are a set of materials that are arranged systematically to be used in the

learning process. According to Hamdani (2011: 120), teaching materials are all forms of

materials arranged systematically used to help teachers or instructors in implementing the

learning process so as to create an environment or atmosphere that allows students to learn.

Then Kemendiknas (2011: 2) explains that teaching materials are all forms of materials used

to assist teachers in implementing the learning process. Another opinion expressed by Ahmad

(2012: 102) that teaching materials is information, tools and text that teachers need for planning

and review of the implementation of a set of learning. Teaching materials can be poured in the

form of hand outs, modules, books, videos, tapes, and others. The development of teaching

materials has several objectives, as stated by Hamdani (2011: 122) that there are several

objectives of teaching materials, namely: (1) helping each student in learning something, (2)

providing various types of teaching materials, (3) in the implementation of the learning process,

and (4) to make the learning process more interesting.

Understanding of Module

According to Winkel (2009: 472), learning module is the smallest unit of teaching learning

program, which is studied by individual students individually or taught by students to

themselves (self-instructional). Nasution (2011: 05) says that the module can be formulated as

a self-contained complete unit and consists of a series of learning activities that are structured

to help students achieve a number of clearly defined and specific objectives. Meanwhile,

according to Daryanto (2013: 9), module is one form of teaching materials that are packed in a

complete and systematic, in which contains a set of planned learning experience and is designed

to help students master specific learning objectives.

Based on some understanding of the module above, it can be concluded that the module is one

of the learning media in the form of print that is packaged in a systematic, interesting, and clear

so easy to learn students independently.

Character Education

Character is a reflection of one's self from the way he behaves. According to Kamus Besar

Bahasa Indonesia (2008: 623), the term "character" means psychic qualities, morality or

character that distinguishes one from another; nature; character. Good or bad character of a

person can be seen from their daily habits in behaving. Lickona (2012: 82) argues, a person is

said to have good character if in real life has three habits, that is knowing the good (habits of

mind), wanting good (habits of hearth), and doing good deeds (habits of action). Based on the

description can be obtained the understanding that the character is a self-image of a form of

attitude, actions, and behavior that can be seen from the habit.

Character education can be interpreted as values education, moral education, character

education, which aims to give bad decisions, to preserve what is good, and to create good in

daily life with all the heart. According to Lickona (2012: 81), the right characteristic of

education consists of operative value, value in action that includes three interrelated parts of

knowledge of morals, moral feelings, and moral behavior. Meanwhile, Wiyani (2013: 27)

argues that character education is a process of giving guidance to students to become a full

human being who are characterized in the dimensions of the heart, mind, body, and sense and

will. In line with the above opinion, Zubaedi (2012: 19) argues that character education is "a

sincere attempt to understand, shape, cultivates ethical values, both for ourselves and for all

societies or citizens as a whole".

Understanding of Contextual Learning

Contextual approach is one of the student-based approaches. Contextual learning uses various

methods that make the characteristics of Citizenship Education learning has a democratic

feature. It demonstrates the characteristics of learning Civics a new paradigm which is

democratic characterized by democratic learning model.

METHODOLOGY

Types of Research

Developmental research is a research method used to develop a product through a certain stage,

until a product will be produced that tested the level of validity, practicality, and effectiveness

of the needs. According to Sugiyono (2009: 297), research and development is a study that

produces a specific product and test the effectiveness of the product. This research was

conducted to develop a product in the form of teaching materials by integrating character

education in contextual learning. The developmental model used refers to the 4-D model,

proposed by S. Thiagarajan, Dorothy S. Semmel, and Melvyn I. Semmel. According

Thiagarajan, et al. (in Trianto, 2012: 189) this model consists of four stages of define, design,

development and disseminate.

Research Subjects

The subjects of this study are the students and the teachers of class V-A and V-B class SD

Negeri 060841 Medan City. The criteria used to select the test subjects are as follows:

1) The condition of students according to the needs of research

2) The school environments that support the implementation of research

3) The teachers have not yet created a character-based Civics material through a

contextual approach.

The trials design to be used in the development of the instrument is to use the control class, pre

test and test posts that are stated as follows:

In conducting a limited trial involves 2 observers. From the results of this limited trial, it is

analyzed and then revised to get the final draft. The purpose of this experiment is to find out

the clarity of the readability of the teaching materials and to see the suitability of the planned

time of the test. When the implementation is conducted, the test is conducted to the student

ability tests which aim to determine whether the developed teaching materials can improve the

character of the students. The test is conducted at the beginning (Pre-test) and end (Post-test)

learning.

Validation Instruments

Validation instruments are used to determine the validity of the designed teaching materials.

This validation sheet will be filled by the validator. This validation sheet contains the

assessment aspects that include feasibility, language, presentation, and appearance. The data

analysis of learning instrument validation results consist of modules, RPP and Tests Learning

outcomes in terms of character development. In general, the assessed aspects are format,

content and language. Activities undertaken to analyze this data are:

a) Putting the assessment data into the table includes: aspect ( Ai) indicator ( I i

achieved in the category is valid. If the validity level is under a valid category then it is

revised again based on the input of the validator. The revisions are made onward until a

valid learning device is obtained.

Data Analysis Technique

Analytical technique used is descriptive data analysis, which describes the level of validity of

teaching materials, the practicality of teaching materials, the student competencies that show

the effectiveness of teaching materials.

3.5 Analysis of Teaching Material Validity

The analysis of teaching material validity is conducted by using Likert scale based on

validation sheet. The scoring for each category can be seen in the following table.

The analysis of teaching materials effectiveness is conducted based on data obtained from data

collection instruments. Data Analysis of the Character Assessment.

The steps taken in the analysis of the student character assessment data are as follows:

1) Giving assessment of each characteristic aspect according to the indicators developed, with

the following provisions:

1 = always, when performing appropriate statements

2 = often, if often do appropriate statements and sometimes do not do

3 = sometimes, if sometimes do and often do not do

4 = never, if not do

2) Summing up the scores from each of the assessed aspects

3) Determining value by the formula:

N = The obtained score (SD) x 100%

Ideal score(SI)

(Abidin, 2012:278)

The category of the students’ character can be determined based on the following table:

Percentage (%) 80 20

From the table 11, it can be seen that from 20 students who take part in the comprehension test,

as many as 16 people or 80% of the students obtained the value above KKM (≥ 70). While the

rest, that is 2 students or 20% obtained the value under the KKM.

Based on these results, it is known that more than 75% of the students who take part in the

learning by using character-based Civics teaching materials through a contextual approach

completed in learning.

Character Assessment

The assessment of the students’ character is based on the observation of the stduents’ character

during the learning process. The instrument used is an observation sheet which is also used in

the development stage. The observation result of the students’ character can be seen in

following table:

Civic Learning Assessment

Similarly, in the development stage, the assessment of the Civic learning process is also

conducted by using the assessment rubric. The aspects are also assessed a number of the

students’ skills from the same activities of discussion, presentation of results of discussion and

reflection of the results of the discussion. The results of the student learning process assessment

can be seen from the following table:

4.10 Assessment of the Civics Learning Outcomes

The assessment of the Civics learning outcomes is conducted by doing a comprehension test

in the form of learning-related problems. The effectiveness test at the development stage, tests

is also conducted at the end of the meeting. In summary, the results of student understanding

tests can be seen in the following table:

Table 14: Percentage of the Assessment Completeness of Civics Learning Outcomes

Based on KKM

Numebr of students Completeness

Complete (≥70) Not completed (<70)

Percentage (%) 80 20

Table 14 shows that from the 20 students who participated in the test, 16 students or 80% of

the students have scores above the KKM (≥ 70). Meanwhile, 4 students or 20% got the value

under KKM.

Data Validation Results of theLlearning Design Expert

The result of validation of learning design on the developed Teaching Materials of Civics

shows that: 1) the quality of learning design of teaching materials seen from the feasibility of

the presentation is considered very valid, with percentage 71,86%; 2) the quality of learning

design of PKN teaching materials seen from the presentation is considered very valid, with the

percentage of 100%, 3) the quality of learning design of PKN In terms of language is

considered valid, with 75% percentage and 4) the quality of learning design of PKN In terms

of the selection of the image is considered valid, with 75% percentage. The percentage of

assessment results by the design expert of learning can be seen in the following Table 15:

Based on the data analysis, it can be concluded that the average percentage of the assessment

results of the learning design of Civic materials is categorized as "valid" with an average score

of 80.47%. The percentage of the results of the assessment of the design expert can be seen in

Figure 1 below:

Figure 1: Chart of Average Percentage the Learning Design Expert Assessment Results

Based on the assessment results of the learning design, there are some things that must be

improved, among others, clarify the color of each image on the Civics teaching materials. After

the revision, the learning design expert stated that the developed Civics learning is suitable for

use in the field without revision and validity.

CONCLUSION

The character-based Civics learning materials through the contextual approach which are

resulted in this development research are valid in terms of content and constructs. This can be

seen based on the results of experts’ validation and practitioners on the developed teaching

materials with valid categories. This result provides an illustration that the developed teaching

materials can be used in learning Civics in grade V in SD Negeri 060841 Medan City.

Character-based Civics teaching materials through the contextual approach generated in this

development study have been declared effective for improving Civic learning skills and

developing student character. This can be seen from the assessment process and the results of

learning Civics. The completeness obtained by the students strongly illustrates that the teaching

materials that have been developed effectively used in Civics learning in class V SD.
